The Veep stopped short. He made no move to unsling the needler he carried, its barrel pointing skyward over his shoulder, but his round head with its upstanding comb of hair swung slightly from side to side. "Stop Wass this is a trap!" His three men kept on.
He barely had time to spot a stunner muzzle in the opening and start reaching for his needler before his ambusher fired and he slumped to the airlock deck. Owajima was a little surprised at the ease of his success, though there was no way even one as skilled as DarLeras was reputed to be could have detected any sign of his entry.
One might almost believe that they had intelligently planned this end for their drive. "We go down!" Asaki yelled, and used his needler on the leader of that climbing platoon. "The brush islands," Nymani amended. "I show you!" He thrust his needler at Jellico and was over the edge of the ledge, hanging by his hands and swinging his weight back and forth like a pendulum.
"The needler has no effect on them," he reported. "Stones do but I don't know why." They searched about them in the crevices for more ammunition, laying up a line of fist-sized rocks, while the lights gathered in, spreading farther and farther down the shores of the islet. Hume cried out suddenly, and aimed his ray tube below. The lance of its blast cut the dark as might a bolt of lightning.
Though I assure you that Wass is not one of them in the way you might believe." Gray eyes met brown, held so straightly. Then Hume spoke. "I believe you. But I have told you the truth." "I have never doubted that only the amount of it. There must be more talking later on you understand that?" "I never thought otherwise." Hume set the needler inside the flitter.
For instance, suppose, you're walking along North Promenade, in Dhergabar, and you come to the Martian Palace Café, and you go in for a drink, and meet some girl, and strike up an acquaintance with her. This chance acquaintance develops into a love affair, and a year later, out of jealousy, she rays you half a dozen times with a needler."
Yes, eventually the Patrol would come but when? Hours days? Time was their enemy now. He did not have to say any of that, they both knew. "Needler " Hume's head had turned in the other direction; now his hand pointed waveringly to the weapon in the dust. "They won't be back," Vye stated the obvious. Those others had been caught in the trap, the odds on their return without aid were very high.
The handcuffs fell from the "prisoner's" wrists; he jerked a neutron-disruption blaster from under his jacket. Vall, his needler already drawn, rayed the fellow dead before he could aim it, then saw that the two pseudo-policemen had drawn their needlers and were aiming in the direction of Salgath Trod.
